Women's Arc Haul Ultra 40L Backpack
The Women’s Arc Haul Ultra 40L Backpack is Zpacks’ ultralight, 40-liter pack designed for women and shorter hikers, delivering the same rugged durability as the standard Arc Haul line. It uses Ultra 100X fabric (3.3 oz/sq yd UHMWPE), a material described as stronger than steel and lighter than air, offering abrasion resistance and natural water protection with no PFAS or harsh coatings. All seams and attachment points are taped for high water resistance, and the roll-top closure pairs with side pockets for two 1L bottles plus a large center pocket to keep gear organized and accessible. The Arc Frame curves away from the back to create a breathable air gap and transfers weight to the hips for a comfortable carry, while a patented adjustable torso height and interchangeable shoulder straps let you dial in a female-friendly fit. With 40L of capacity, it suits 3–4 day trips with ultralight gear and can be expanded with modular accessories as needed. Crafted and assembled in the USA from domestic and imported components, the Arc Haul Ultra reflects Zpacks’ commitment to American-made craftsmanship. The Ultra 100X fabric is naturally waterproof and free from PFAS, DWR, and harsh coatings, underscoring an eco-conscious approach to gear. All of the pack’s construction—taped seams, the lightweight yet durable Arc Frame, and a layout designed for easy access—speaks to a thoughtful, rider-focused build. The product is backed by a two-year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship, underscoring the brand’s confidence in its American-made craftsmanship. This model also emphasizes women-specific fit options, including Small/Women’s straps and adjustable torso height, reinforcing its purpose-built, in-America design.
